Machine and robot builders recognize linear motor benefits, but some are reluctant to integrate the components into design because of incomplete understanding of the technology. Here we overcome that ...

This is probably the last of three articles on how piecewise-linear functions could be used as a helpful on-ramp to the big ideas in calculus. In the first article, we saw how it’s possible to develop ...

As part of writing tech stories such as those we feature here at Hackaday, there is a huge amount of research to be done. We trawl through pages and pages of obscure blogs, videos, and data sheets.

Hear Jon Lorello, a linear motion and mechatronics specialist at NSK America, discuss the best ways to streamline the integration of linear motion solutions when designing and building equipment. He ...

This eBook places the focus on the effective design of motion control solutions for industrial machinery. Learn about applications in Cartesian robots, or long-travel linear robots, where the ...

Melexis has brought out a linear Hall-effect sensor that draws less than 5 µA at 100 Hz and integrates digital filters for ...
